Nobody Gets to Insult My Friends

church.

Adam, Monica, Richard sat in their seats, looking at Rachel standing above with pity.

Last time, Rachel faced Barry, standing in the middle, with a row of bridesmaids behind her, Mindy, the chief bridesmaid, standing at the very front.

This time, Mindy, dressed in a white wedding gown, stood in the center facing Barry.

She forgave Mindy and Barry, the two traitors, and kindly came to their wedding, only to be forced to wear an ugly red bridesmaid dress, far from the altar, and stand at the very back of the bridesmaids' quarters.

That's it!

They also had to endure the frequent stares from a large portion of the guests who were attending both weddings.

The thought of the vicious rumors spread by Barry's family that she had been poisoned by toxic positivity and gone insane, and the audience whispering among themselves as they watched her, drove her to the brink of madness.

I originally thought she had considered the worst-case scenario and made the worst-case plan.

But when she actually faced it, she realized that there was no worst, only worse.

But she still had to force a smile, even though it was completely stiff.

"I've always dreamed about my own wedding."

Monica looked at the altar with envy and whispered to Richard, "Rachel has already stood on it twice, even as a bridesmaid this time, but I haven't even done it once. No wonder my mother used to mock me. At least Rachel had a chance to keep Barry on the altar, while I didn't even have that chance."

You will have it.

Richard and Adam exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly.

Monica's underlying message was clear to everyone: she wanted to get married.

Richard, who had just ended his decades-long marriage, might not think that way. However, in this atmosphere, as an experienced and mature older man, he couldn't very well say no.

Adam smiled knowingly.

The happy atmosphere at a wedding has a very significant impact on single girls.

Barney, the Barney from How I Met Your Mother, particularly enjoys attending weddings because there are many beautiful bridesmaids there, and these bridesmaids' emotions are already stirred up.

Normally, it takes 100% of the strategy to get to base, but now only 30% is needed, making it the best opportunity to get to base.

His guide to picking up girls is a thick, hardcover book containing many of the tricks he used at weddings.

Of course, it's not just for bridesmaids; there are also options for the bride...

After the wedding ceremony, everyone went to the hotel to attend the wedding banquet.

"Rachel, watch out."

Adam, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed Rachel's unease and quickly walked to her side, standing behind her.

"What's wrong?"

Rachel was deeply affected and somewhat absent-minded.

"Don't you feel a bit chilly in your back?"

Adam reminded him.

"What?"

Rachel was startled. She reached out and touched it, and the icy touch sent a jolt through her nerve center. Only then did she realize that half of her buttocks was exposed.

"OMG!"

Rachel's face flushed red instantly, and she quickly straightened her dress.

"Adam, I can't take it anymore."

Rachel covered her face and said, "Take me away from here."

"Are you sure?"

Adam cautioned, "You could have chosen not to come before, but now that you're here, if you leave early, they'll laugh at you for the rest of your life."

"What do I do?"

Rachel asked, confused.

"Smile."

Adam encouraged her, "Barry is just a jerk you dumped because you discovered his problems in time. Mindy knew Barry was a jerk but still chose to marry him, that's foolish of her. Only you are the wise and righteous one, and the final victory will surely belong to you."

Me?

Rachel's anxiety lessened considerably after being praised like that, and a smile appeared on her face as she followed Adam to sit down at the banquet.

I had barely sat down when someone started a fight.

Ding ding ding!

"Attention everyone, the best man is about to offer a toast, thank you."

Barry's chief best man tapped his glass with a fork, drawing everyone's attention, then produced a prepared speech and began his toast.

"I remember the scene when Barry came back from his first date with Rachel..."

The air suddenly fell silent, everyone stared at him, and Rachel's smile vanished.

"What's wrong?"

The best man said in a pretentious manner, "The band hasn't changed, so can't I use the same toast as last time?"

The band members made a commotion, echoing the best man's words.

"Thank you, thank you."

The best man glanced smugly at Rachel: "I wish you both a long and happy life together, and Rachel too!"

"What are you doing?"

Rachel said through gritted teeth, her face stiff.

"Not many women would dare to come back here tonight."

The best man said in a serious tone, "Not to mention coming over with your butt exposed, that's even rarer~"

The band responded with another loud noise.

Some people chuckled and then explained to the bewildered person.

Although Adam reminded her, most people didn't see it, but since Rachel came from the bridesmaids' group, some people did see her.

Adam frowned.

He even suspected that the best man or bridesmaid might have deliberately sabotaged Rachel, causing her to lose face so badly when she was distracted. Otherwise, he couldn't understand Rachel was perfectly fine before, but her dress suddenly became revealing after she came out of the bridesmaids' group.

Ding ding ding!

Seeing the best man smugly nod and acknowledge everyone before sitting down, Adam also picked up his cutlery and tapped his wine glass.

"I'd like to add a few words."

"Adam, what are you doing?"

Rachel nervously clung to Adam's arm.

"Rest assured."

Adam patted Rachel's hand and looked around at everyone. "The best man was right. Not many women are as courageous as Rachel."

She had the courage to follow her heart and escape the wedding she didn't want, and in fact, that proved to be the right choice, didn't it?

At this point, Adam tugged at Rachel's hand and smiled confidently, "It was her courage that made today's bride and groom possible."

The bride and groom's smiles looked somewhat stiff.

"Her greatest courage was choosing to forgive the bride and groom and return here to bless them."

Adam joked, "The groom is quite something too. After all, not everyone can find a female companion to go on their honeymoon without any gaps after the bride runs away, and he's even the bride's chief bridesmaid. You can imagine how charming the groom is."

The plane tickets for the honeymoon in the United States were booked in advance, and the time was right after the wedding banquet. The bride and groom would fly directly to their honeymoon destination, and their bridal chamber would also be arranged there.

Time is extremely tight. Unless there is an affair beforehand, there is simply no time to replace someone without any gaps. Everyone knows this.

The bride and groom could barely keep their smiles on their faces.

Adam then looked at the best man. "The best man knows this best~ By the way, is there your girlfriend among the bridesmaids?"

The once smug best man's face suddenly darkened. He glanced suspiciously at his girlfriend, who was wearing a red bridesmaid dress, and then at the groom.

It's better not to say anything, because once it's brought up, the seeds of doubt will inevitably take root and sprout.

Yes, Barry can have an affair with Mindy, so why can't he have an affair with his girlfriend?

You know, Barry is a well-paid dentist, and his girlfriend often envies Mindy's good fortune, saying she married a rich man...
